Political iconography is established with meaning and purpose. Tampering with an icon means that the original value system has been altered, compromised or simply fallen away, creating new meanings in the process. This exhibit of East German political icons and symbols and their changed meaning commemorates the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.
